LHF Kids Club Games and Activities

Upcoming Activities

Don’t miss our LHF Kids’ Club Activity Spots each month May-October! These are hands‐on activities for LHF Kids Club members at Living History Farms sites. Download a LHF Kids Club passport below and bring it with you. You’ll get a stamp for joining in on the activity! At the end of the season in October, kids with a completed passport can exchange their passports for a special prize in the Marketplace Museum Store! Activities take place on scheduled days from 10am to Noon and 1pm to 3pm.

May 12: Visit the Greteman General Store for a Garden shopping scavenger hunt! Farmers often purchased tools and seeds for their gardens at a local General Store. Drop in and see if you can find all the items on the shopping list for a garden plot!

June 16: Join the wedding preparations and celebrations at the 1850 Pioneer Farm. Wedding ceremonies take place at 11am and 1:30pm. Before the wedding, play games and meet the bride and groom. After the ceremony, taste a pioneer wedding cake recipe and join in a dance!

Can’t make it on one of the scheduled activity days? Stop in to the MarketPlace Museum Store anytime you visit Living History Farms during that month to get a stamp in your passport.

Historic Baseball

Be a part of the crowd as the Walnut Hill Bluestockings compete in 1870s-rules baseball!

Historic baseball rules apply, such as no overhand pitching, the hitter can request the height of his pitch, a catch on the first bounce is an out and no baseball gloves allowed. All games are FREE with paid admission to Living History Farms, and the team makes sure kids have a chance to swing the bat at the end of each game.
